andyvd 's review for:
Frankissstein
by Jeanette Winterson
This just didn't do it for me. The contemporary doppelgangers of Shelley and her companions felt contrived and too much like a creative writing exercise to me. I didn't connect with any of the characters nor the storyline, which tries very hard to touch upon many current issues (Brexit, transgender identities, ...) yet does not manage to do so in a sufficiently deep and satisfying manner. I gave up after trying very hard to like this novel for about 100 pages.
